Olympique de Marseille has reached an agreement with Italian club ACF Fiorentina for the permanent transfer of 23-year-old Spanish fullback Pol Lirola. After a successful medical, Pol has signed a five-year contract with the Italian club.
He is the ninth Olympien addition of this summer transfer window.

Always very active on the right side, the Spaniard is a true modern full-back capable of transforming into a winger when the team attacks. He is quick, technical, a good crosser and has excellent vision.
